CIPHER ZERO

great little puzzlegame!

Soft recommend. The first (half?) if the game is great. I really enjoy logic puzzles and pulling threads to find solutions. Unfortunately around the time "Sectors" are introduced, it becomes much more about guessing and checking. To the point where by the time I got to the Suburbs, where the grids change from squares to hexagons, I was exhausted with the whole premise.

good, short, medium difficulty puzzle game

The puzzles are challenging but not interesting. The game is pretty but doesn't have anything to actually say. Rather than introducing new concepts, past the halfway point it's mostly combinations of things you already know. Also, commits a personal peeve of only giving you one puzzle to work on at a time. There's better, as other reviewers have mentioned. It also seems designed for mobile - neither a pro nor con, but I'm surprised it's not on Apple or Google storefronts. If anything, it'd be a tentative recommend for those platforms as it lends itself to short sessions on touchscreen devices.

Gorgeous clean puzzle design, sound design and visuals, exponential difficulty increase. Similar to Understand, you spend the first few puzzles of an area determining the newly introduced mechanic, and then you use that knowledge to solve more difficult puzzles. Very enjoyable short puzzle game, can be played in 2-3 afternoons

Haven't been this challenged to think since Baba is You
